@gkrewinghaus To quietly edit the wording and not issue a correction for a blatant factual inaccuracy is CRAZY (and unethical journalism) !

Too many articles about the university protests rely on people in power (admin, police, etc) and fail to really talk with those protesting. So, the news team at the @GtownVoice interviewed 25+ people involved GW encampment. Proud of the piece we created:

one issue with the news desert framing (which has been valuable!), is that it misses places like DC - which has as many journalists per capita as any place in the world yet whose residents starve for local coverage and civic information. the shuttering of @DCist is a crisis

BREAKING: A jury has found @PacifiCorp liable for wildfires and damages in all four of the fires. In an almost clean sweep, the jury found @PacifiCorp at fault on every question and leveraged massive $$ for victims.

@DoleBryce @salemkeizer Ugh. I ran into that guy a couple times at sports games and I never had a good feeling about him. Really, really important reporting there.

[Eddy Binford-Ross @eddybinfordross]

@ZachsORoutdoors What a huge loss for Salem and the Statesman. That one definitely hurts.

[Eddy Binford-Ross @eddybinfordross]

@NataliePateGwin @Salem_Statesman @Gannett I am so, so sorry to hear this, Natalie. I will forever be grateful for your guidance and support last spring. Salem will be worse off without you and your dedicated coverage.
